What is the highest number of fields that can be used? I'm going to have 59 in my upcoming database. Will this overload the script in any way?

You can have as many fields as you like. The important thing to remember is that the more fields and the more select fields you have, the longer the web pages will take to download.

The important thing in terms of search efficacy and management of your database is that your database file (.db) does not exceed 1.0 MGs. If you anticipate that you will exceed this amount, then it would be wise to consider purchasing a SQL license, since that version handles server processing much more efficiently than using ASCII Flat Files.

I have run into trouble if there were more than about 150 fields. It seems there is some sort of maximum number of fields that can be shown on a form.

Otherwise, I agree with Eliot.
